Alberto Aquilani: We Are Juventus & Must Walk Tall

Liverpool's Alberto Aquilani, currently on loan with Serie A giants Juventus is looking forward to facing Manchester City in Thursday night's Europa League game.

The 26-year-old attacking midfielder said...

'I played in England and I know that teams are all tough. Manchester City bought some important players and they are a formidable opponent. But we are the Juventus and we must walk tall.'

The Italian international made 18 Liverpool appearances since making his Premier League debut during the 2009/10 season, however he failed to impress new manager Roy Hodgson even though the former Fulham boss played him in a couple of pre-season games, but stated publicly in mid-August that Aquilani could go back to Italy on loan for a full season, where playing regularly he could gain match fitness.

No worries, your comments were not lost in translation but like I say, it was a slow news day. Perhaps the Juve players will trip over their shoe laces later tonight when they train at CoMS. At least that might be a giggle (lol) if nothing else.
